About R 1200 RS

The R1200 RS is BMW Motorrad's sporty streetbike offering for those who prefer a faired motorcycle. It generates slightly less power than its streetfighter sister, the R1200 R, but it also weighs just 236kg, which helps its performance. It is powered by the same 1170cc boxer twin engine that powers a lot of BMW bikes. It sports conventional hardware like upside down front forks and plain-vanilla rear monoshock suspension. Of course, being a BMW, it has a ton of electronics to help the rider keep the rubber side down. There is no real competition from European manufacturers other than the Ducati Supersport. However, the land of the rising sun brings to the ring the Suzuki GSX-S1000F and the Kawasaki Ninja 1000.
